devices that are constrained by their resources such as computing power, RF
range, memory, bandwidth, or network packet sizes. This protocol, CoAP, is
standardized by the IETF as RFC 7252. For further information related to
CoAP, see <a class="ulink" href="http://coap.technology" target="_top">http://coap.technology</a>.</p><p>Documentation for the specific library calls with examples can be found in the
man pages referred to in SEE ALSO.</p><p>Further information can be found in the include header files with example
